Sažetak
Drug-induced pemphigus is a well-established variety of pemphigus,
presenting with clinical and histopathologic features identical to
idiopathic form. Medical history plays a fundamental role in the diagnosis
of drug-induced pemphigus. A large variety of drugs have been implicated
in its pathogenesis and they may induce acantholysis via biochemical
and/or immune mechanism. We present a case of a 69-year-old woman
affected by amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-induced pemphigus and discuss its
pathogenetic mechanism.
